Froggy

He's a strong lad, he has the potential to play well with his back to goal, but at the minute he's doing it very poorly. Still young with that sort of stuff mind. I'm desperate for him to get a goal. Hope it's tonight.

He's shite with his back to goal and just wrestles with defenders and falls on his arse. His strength is his finishing, but he's been so used to zero service from our greedy wingers that he's coming deeper now and isn't in the box where he should be.

It looks horrific, but the cost cutting is going to reach the players as well, and the exits of Rashford, Sancho and Antony with no replacements show this IMO. They'll be absolutely desperate to get rid of players like Casemiro. It's going to be a complete restructure with years of being very average and zero guarantees of getting anywhere close to the top again. It was an agreement as part of the sale. No dividend payments until 2026 at the earliest, and that includes Ratcliffe. They haven't been paid since 2022.

It's fact on paper in black and white. what we don't know is how much went to Newcastle and how much went to Ashworth.

He didn't get £4.1m severance.

Soup and toasties? Don't see the problem. The problem is employees getting free fruit. A year of no free fruit would pay Casemiro for an hour.

While he's been very poor, this is absolute nonsense and Luckhurst is nothing but a shit-stirring cunt.

Disagree with this. He's their star attacker but the whole team is performing with the exception of maybe Robertson. Van Dijk, Szoboszlai, Gravenberch and Mac Allister all having really good seasons. Gakpo/Diaz have nearly 30 goals in all competitions between them. Saying Salah is singlehandedly winning them the league would be like me saying Isak is singlehandedly winning you a place in Europa, which would be disingenuous.

You (not you) could argue anything if you're paranoid enough.

Regardless of whether it was or not, my point is that it could easily be given if there was any favouritism.

It was never a pen, so I was buzzing that they didn't give it. I was shocked it was overturned though. Young only has himself to blame as well.

Like Joelinton's clear handball against Spurs for Gordon's equaliser? Spurs are one of the "cartel clubs" right? Wasn't there a handball from Livramento in the same game as well? They were very easy decisions to give to Spurs if they were favouring them, but they weren't. Obviously. Everyone gets decisions for and against them. There's no bias.

midds is saying the same thing as me. And he didn't look great in the signing photo IMO. But it could have just been bad pictures.

Nobody thought this. Everyone expected him to put in as much effort as he possibly could and play well early on. Give it 6 months. Let him earn his move, get comfortable, then see how he gets on. He will revert to type.

Few sides in better form.

They were certainly allowed on Maguire. You enjoy Ugarte's screamer today?

Found it quite refreshing. Two unbiased commentators just enjoying the game.

It was the correct decision. Ashley Young deserves it as well. I've been seeing that dive from him for 15 years. Never a pen, and if it was then Maguire should have had two at the other end. Good game. Fair result.

We are massive. That point is for you Kath.

They are actively trying to move Rashford to be fair.

I genuinely don't mind the whole penny pinching thing. Also, while it's shite for the people involved, it was probably necessary to trim an extremely bloated workforce. The issue comes when INEOS are continuing the trend of awful decisions, and throwing money away needlessly. Apparently, the 250 job cuts will save £10m a year. Yet since the summer we've now spent £14.5m on extending Ten Hag, sacking Ten Hag, hiring Ashworth and sacking Ashworth. It's a fucking huge slap in the face. This is apparently while having the "best in class" to make these decisions.

Nunez is definitely better than Hojlund like. Hojlund is a better finisher though. If he spent less time trying to wrestle opponents that are much stronger than him and focused on getting his arse into the box he'd have a lot more goals. Hojlund spends 80 minutes facing his own goal.
